Studio 24

Studio 24 is a home care agency based in Erith, in the Bexley council area, registered with the Care Quality Commission to provide personal care to people in their own homes. It most likely works within about 6 miles of its Erith office, which is our estimate rather than something the agency has told us. It is registered to care for older people, younger adults, people with a physical disability, people with a learning disability or autism and people with mental health needs. It is run by Peculiar Care Homes. The agency has been registered since March 2016.

At its latest inspection, published March 2023, the CQC rated Studio 24 Requires improvement, which means the CQC found the service was not performing as well as it should and told it how to improve. Ratings can change after a new inspection, so read the CQC report before you decide.

Studio 24 has not published its rates and has not yet told us what they are. Home care agencies in Bexley with a rate on record typically charge about £23.75 an hour, so expect a figure in that range and ask for a written price list that shows weekend and bank holiday rates.

There are 61 registered home care agencies in Bexley. Others working the same area include Dream Community Personnel Limited (Woolwich), Abantu Care Services and Main Office, 1 of which has a rate on record. A self-employed carer found through PrimeCarers charges £18 to £25 an hour, and live-in care typically about £1,120 a week across England.
